        The man lit on fire survived, but there was the old dude the protestors hit with a brick [that you link below, but he wasn’t the same as the arson victim] and that protestor who fell off a ladder or something and died.

            I didn’t know about the suicide, so debateably it was 3. Anyway, I appreciate your integrity.

              I like people to be interested and want the info. I don’t know if you’ve noticed from my conversation here, the majority of people just want to argue with me and not actually learn something.
